"Brown's melodic text is beguiling, while its subject--the big red barn that houses a menagerie of animals and their offspring--will have instant appeal to young children. Bond's newly added drawings have a simplicity that suits the story (about the cycle of a day on a farm). A welcome reprise".--Booklist. Full-color illustrations.
